Ninh Binh opens National Tourism Year 2015

Ninh Binh province has kicked off the National Tourism Year 2015 celebrating Vietnam’s eight World Heritage sites under the theme–Connecting the World Heritage–with an exhibition at the Bai Dinh Pagoda.

The exhibition, which runs January 22-24, is part of activities celebrating the designation of the Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex as a UNESCO mixed natural and cultural heritage of the world.

Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex Director Nguyen Duc Long said the complex is the first site in Viet Nam to receive the mixed natural and cultural heritage status.

The exhibition is divided into eight areas exhibiting artefacts, artwork and other items pertaining to Viet Nam’s eight world heritages – Thang Long Royal Citadel, Ha Long Bay, Ho Dynasty Citadel, Hoi An old quarter, My Son Sanctuary, Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex, the Hue imperial relic complex and the Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park.

Long added that the exhibition provides a good opportunity for exchange and sharing experiences of managing, conserving and developing cultural values among cities and provinces throughout the country.
